I toot about politics, games, history, sometimes movies.
German and English, sorry about the mix!

Now you go. What's the absolute worst that could happen?

6) If Abortion is illegal in one state, it must be illegal in all states. Not a federal ban, mind you, the states have decided.

7) To help with the mass deportations, the DHS gets its own federal domestic police force, with national jurisdiction.

3) Trump appoints 4 more justices to SCOTUS, to have 13, all in their early 40ies, all to the right of Alito

4) The Trump SCOTUS establishes new rules that a 2-thirds majority can force a sitting judge on the SCOTUS to resign.

5) They use this to get rid of the liberal judges.

2) The GOP actually takes Mitch McConnel warning to heart: If the Dems win control of both chambers of Congress, they'll admit Puerto Rico and Washington DC as states, adding 4 Democratic senators.
Instead, the GOP splits a couple of red states - more senators for them.
That leads of course to some backlash, but mostly the public will grow more and more disgusted with the "broken system". Congress gets undermined in the public eye, enabling Trump to go even further and further.
Dem challenges are swept aside by the Trump SCOTUS.
1) The GOP has a small minority (Probably 219:214) in the House. They don't get anything done, because there are still a handful of moderates who want to actually govern instead of burning everything to the ground.
Result: Trump issues more XOs, effectively ruling by decree.

With Trump winning the Presidency, the Senate and the House, and with his underqualified cabinet picks: What's the worst that could happen? Like, looking back at the GOPs last few years?

I'll start.

If Trump really does everything he promised, it will be interesting to see how that affects child mortality rates, average life expectancy and malnourishment rates.

Guess that'll be "the immigrants" fault then, too, and not banning vaccines, fluoride and other scientific achievements.

Who would've thought that the only thing Trump needed to win the popular vote would be:
* Get convicted of a felony.
* Be liable for sexual assault
* Be impeached twice
* Incite a coup attempt on Jan 6th
* Mimic fellating a mike
